similar to: Samples files for comboot and default

Hi This is what I like to be able to do. 1. Computer boot on LAN, using PXELinux. 2. If the computer is booting for the first time it sends MAC adr, RAM, size of harddrive and name of videocard to a shared folder on a computer, maybe a server, that is attached to the network. 3. If this is not the first time it scan for a new task, could be a new ghostimage or an unattended installation of a

Is there a way for isolinux/syslinux to execute a list of comboot files immediately at startup, and only once? I have a bunch of small comboot .com files that I want to batch run immediately, then after that do a DISPLAY boot.msg similar in some ways to an autoexec.bat. For example: DEFAULT mycd APPEND ramdisk_size=100000 init=/etc/init lang=us .... TIMEOUT 300 ONSTARTUP mybatch <- ???

Hello, Is is possible to run a comboot file before the boot message is displayed and after its execution, display the boot message and prompt? Regards, Remko van der Vossen.

Hi, I need to add an additional feature to Murali's menu system: sending and receiving UDP datagrams. I have no experiences with writing programs at such a low level. Therefore, I need some help. 1) How to transfer IP address and other options from PXElinux to comboot? 2) I got PXE specification, ver. 2.1 (sept. 1999); can I follow it safely? 3) Is there an easy interface to use PXE stack

On the SysLinux page, there is a screenshot of "COMBOOT Menu System for SYSLINUX developed by Murali Krishnan Ganapathy" (Advanced Menu System). I was wondering where I might be able to download this menu system in full to work with? If you dont want to share, I understand, but I am really intrigued by this and want to learn more, and maybe make my own design if I can figure it out.

First of all Great software, Do you know how I can get the syslinux to display a help screen and then return to the menu, or where I can find information on making .cbt files.. Thanks. Your help would be much appreciated Rene -------------- next part -------------- An HTML attachment was scrubbed... URL:

Hi. I have looked at PXElinux<http://www.syslinux.org/wiki/index.php?title=PXELINUX> to understand all this, but I'm very sorry I don't. I have managed to setup to boot from PXELinux, but I'm not an expert on how to setup a menu file for making a windows unattended installation. Could someone help me with that? Is there some kind of a forum for this or is it just by email?

Is there an LSPCI comboot module that someone has written? Or a linux style boot disk that has: a KERNEL b LSPCI c very small size d quick boot time I am currently having to get through a 5 - 7 minute boot cycle with a fedora setup just to get the lspci output.

Hello all, i announce you the gfxboot COMBOOT module which is written in assembler. Since i didn't find as much spare time as i have hoped last weekend it is far from complete. Nevertheless the module is able to interact with the bincode ([1] and [2]) in the bootlogo cpio archive from the openSUSE 10.2 mini cd. So far it is able to call the bincode gfxboot code and setup some menu entries.

Since lot of people want this thing, I will try to take a stab at it. For now, I will hard code the menu in the code, and then somebody else can remove that restriction. May be we can add some kind of keyword to the config file which syslinux ignores and the comboot menu does something with it. I have one question about comboot: If I write a DOS program using C (compiled using watcom -3 -mt -osx

Good afternoon Sebastian, I am working on upgrading the Ubuntu Syslinux package. It is currently not in sync with the Debian version, partially because of merge conflicts with the Gfxboot patches. Cf: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/syslinux/+bug/270822 https://merges.ubuntu.com/s/syslinux/REPORT I was wondering where your Gfxboot version comes from. I know both Suse and

For several years now, I've been using Syslinux/Isolinux to load boot systems and love it. At times, I've messed up making a config file or forgotten the name of a file on the CD (or USB flash drive) and didn't want to take the time to load the CD into another machine or boot a DOS or Linux OS to search. The ability to browse the CD/USB drive would prove beneficial in these

Int 22h AX 001Eh for now as it appears that the COMBOOT API is designed to be strictly sequential. The API gets extended but only implemented (for now) for SYSLINUX in ldlinux.asm.

So here it is. Ugly and far from acceptable shape but nonetheless it seems to work. Parts are borrowed from syslinux core and of course the gfxboot patch for syslinux 3.63.

The BSD kernels are normally loaded by their own BSD-specific bootloaders (although some other bootloaders can, with

I like how some cds, such as the windows installer discs will skip booting from the disc if you accidentally left the drive because they require you to hit a key to make them actually boot from the disc. I've kind of tried to emulate this behavior using chain.c32, but, it requires me to specify which harddrive, and I'd rather see an independant setup. I've tried localboot -1, but, it
